Dental Anomalies

This video provides an overview of a number of dental anomalies that children may present with.

A significant proportion of paediatric patients will present with a dental anomaly. This include (but is not limited to), missing teeth, supernumerary teeth and disorders of enamel and dentine. It is important to be aware of prevalence, aetiology and have an understanding of the disease process and clinical presentation to inform parents and to help with treatment planning.

Less common conditions are also covered including amelogenesis imperfecta and dentine disorders like dentinogenesis imperfecta and dentine dysplasias.
